Would you?A Poem by LawrenceRaybonA poem that is the answer to a question: Would you sacrifice your child if God asked you to?And lo a voice comes from above, 'I demand the one you love!' And looking up to heaven high, I see nothing but the sky. 'Give unto me your daughter dear! As sacrifice! Do you hear?' 'Oh I hear you,' I call out, 'and you can SUCK IT,' this I shout. 'I gladly go to burn in hell to save my daughter,' this I yell! 'And walking though the gates I'll grin, Knowing that you didn't win!' 'I could take her in a snap,' declares the voice like thunderclap. 'If you did, or if you do, then you'd better take me too!' 'For ever after, dawn to dawn, I'll seek me out your every pawn, And I will take, by word or blade, all the followers, you have made!' 'One by one till none are left! You'll feel my pain! You'll be bereft!' 'For you to ask this thing of me, makes you, not Lord, but enemy!' 'No God of mine would be so cruel.' 'You are not God, and I am no fool.'
